Nutritionist Testimonials
“My experience with Kelsey has been nothing but positive. She is very knowledgeable and patient. She has a truly wonderful way of speaking in lay terms which I much appreciate. I have been committed to the process and in a short amount of time working together with Kelsey she has been able to impact my health for the better. I am forever grateful!”

"I have been having gut health issues for close to 2 years. I have had many doctors appointments, blood draws, procedures, ultrasounds etc with no real answers. My doctor and GI specialist never bothered to ask me questions about my diet or habits, rather they just wanted to schedule tests and procedures and then send me on my way with the same symptoms and no answers. When I found my way to Kelsey, I was frustrated to say the least. Kelsey asked so many questions, and the process to get started was so thorough on my diet, exercise, stress, family history etc. When I met with her, she had so many notes and questions for me. She had clearly done her homework prior to our meeting and she had a lot of insight. Kelsey was great at helping me eliminate certain foods as well as add in other foods and supplements in a way that felt so manageable and simple to implement. She takes such a thoughtful approach on what is helpful in a reasonable way with your individual lifestyle. I finally felt like I was being evaluated and listened to as a person vs a code on a chart. Overall my symptoms have minimized a great deal. I feel so much better and just "normal" a lot of the time with far less issues. Kelsey is consultative and amazing at what she does. I know we can continue to address and tweak things on this journey as we go and I feel like I have a partner in my health and wellness journey and have so much more confidence in finding answers now that I have found her!" - Kim
"Working with Kelsey was a pleasure. Her warm and authentic personality created a comfortable and supportive environment.

The personalized care plans and consistent guidance were instrumental in my journey.”

"Kelsey has improved my life and my family‘s life in so many ways. I don’t even know where to begin. Kelsey is a reliable confident that always has an answer to my questions. If she doesn’t have the answer, she takes time to delve into research to find answers to my questions. Kelsey has a way of inspiring you and does so in a way that does not feel like you’re being pressured to do so. I began my nutrition and fitness journey with Kelsey about a year and a half ago. My mom had just passed away and I was at the lowest of my low as far as nutrition and exercise go. I was having health issues of my own, and I didn’t know where to turn. Kelsey knew just where to start and was gradual in my path of becoming healthy again. We started with fitness, and once I felt comfortable with my routine, we moved onto nutrition. She helped me to identify foods that were beneficial for me, as well as things that I should be avoiding. She also helped me with my colon health and directed me towards the correct supplements to help me feel more energized as I am a teacher over the age of 50 and need lots of energy. Within just a few months, I was feeling so much better and I had lost over 15 pounds. Losing weight was not my goal, I just wanted to feel better and stronger and wanted my aches and pains and headaches to go away. All of that happened as well, the weight loss was just an added bonus. Kelsey has inspired not only myself but my family as well and we have really turned eating around at our house. We all feel healthier and happier, stronger, more well rested, and we owe that all to Kelsey." -Jessica M.
"I’ve been diagnosed with Pure Autonomic Failure (PAF), which has caused Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), along with several other health issues. I am very thankful that God lead me to Kelsey! She is super knowledgeable, very willing to research and learn all about my health issues, and excellent at figuring out what I need to eat and what supplements will most help me. She has a very sweet spirit – always positive, encouraging, and happy to help. Thanks to her assistance, my lab reports continue to improve and surprise the doctors who assured me a year ago that things would only get worse over time. What a blessing Kelsey has been for me over the past 9 months!"

Nutritionist FAQ's
Q:What is Medical Nutrition Therapy?
A: Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is a personalized, clinically guided approach that helps manage health conditions and improve well-being through advanced nutrition care. It begins with a thorough review of your health history, labs, and lifestyle, then builds a plan tailored to your unique needs. MNT uses food and nutrients as effective tools to address root causes, restore balance, and support lasting wellness.
Q: What is Performance Nutrition?
A: Performance nutrition goes beyond simple advice like “eat more protein.” It is a strategic, individualized approach designed to support training, recovery, and overall wellness. This includes optimizing meal timing, hydration, gut-friendly foods, and supplementation to prevent issues such as cramping, bloating, or fatigue—all tailored to your body’s needs.
Q: How long does it take to feel better?
A: Most patients see results within 3-4 months of consistent work, with visits typically scheduled 1–2 times per month.
Q: How much does a Nutritionist cost? Do you take insurance?
A: All nutrition service prices are listed on our booking site. We are a pay-per-session clinic and require a credit card on file. Kelsey offers discounted packages to make nutrition services more affordable. Patients referred by Dr. Miller also receive a discounted first visit.
​
Q: Why shouldn't I just go see an insurance-based RD?
A: Just like in primary care, where visits can sometimes feel rushed, insurance often limits the time registered dietitians (RDs) are able to spend with clients. This can make it harder to dive deep into your unique needs. RDs are highly skilled professionals, with most of their training based in hospital and clinical settings, which focus on standardized nutrition guidelines. Certified Nutrition Specialists (CNSs), on the other hand, receive additional training in holistic, research-driven, and personalized care—similar to how functional medicine builds upon conventional medicine. This means the guidance you receive is designed to be up-to-date, flexible, and truly aligned with your goals and lifestyle
